Stamullen Tidy Towns

Stamullen Tidy Towns, in conjunction with Whyte’s Bar and Restaurant, is organising our usual Christmas event for Sunday, 5th December at 5 pm.  This will include Fr. Brendan blessing our new crib and the Christmas tree.

 

The lights have been repaired and serviced and Fr. Brendan will switch these on after the blessing.

Santa will of course make an appearance.  We would ask everyone to adhere to public health guidelines and observe any instructions from members of the committee.

All of the above is subject to Government guidelines at the time and may change at short notice due to the current covid situation.  If anyone can help with this, please contact any member of the Tidy Towns.
